Worlds Fantastic, Worlds Familiar

A Guided Tour of the Solar System

Manchester Physics Series

Begin to understand the cosmos with this easy-to-use introduction Astrophysics is the application of physics to astronomical studies, dedicated to understanding the properties of celestial objects even from an immeasurable distance. Cosmology is the study of the Universe itself: its properties, its origins, its ongoing evolution. Together, these two are among the foundational subfields of astronomy, producing extraordinary insights into the broader cosmos we inhabit. Introduction to Astrophysics &amp; Cosmology provides a foundational introduction to these two subjects, intended for interested students with little to no prior knowledge of astronomy. Emphasizing basic physical principles throughout, it covers astronomical bodies and spaces at all scales, from the whole cosmos to our own solar system. The result is an indispensable guide for students wishing to familiarize themselves with the study of our Universe. Introduction to Astrophysics &amp; Cosmology readers will also find: Discussion of astronomical tools such as telescopes and moreProblems and self-assessment questions, with solutions, at the conclusion of each chapterLinks to other valuable online resourcesIntroduction to Astrophysics &amp; Cosmology is ideal for undergraduate physics or astronomy students, as well as general readers with some physical knowledge desiring an introductory astronomy text.

Close your eyes and imagine the last moments of a massive star, large as the Solar System. As the mass of its core approaches a fatidic value, the enormous fabric collapses. The star plasma streams like a monstrous wave inward towards the center of the star. In a fraction of a second the core of the star becomes as dense as an atomic nucleus. And then a mighty outward shock wave forms, disrupting the whole structure, the star becoming almost as bright as the whole galaxy. This explosion is a supernova!Chinese observers studied with care these events since ancient times; the observation of these explosions by Tycho Brahe and Kepler was crucial for the adoption of the Copernican system. Do you know that each drop of your blood contains iron atoms produced in these cosmic cataclysms? We are literally star dust, disseminated in the galactic medium by supernovae.This book guides the reader in the discovery of these rare events, the most spectacular that the Universe can offer. Present models reproduce the explosion only with difficulty, as if some details were wrong, or a whole aspect of physics was missing from the equations. Different aspects of these events are illustrated, as well as their historical and scientific importance and their crucial role in the evolution of the galaxy and the living organisms.

Supernova: The Last Flash Of The Disappearing Star

Space and Planetary Advances

Exoplanet Detection Methods: Uncovering the Evolution of Planetary Systems is a comprehensive guide that delves into modern techniques for detecting exoplanets. It explores current methods while unravelling the fascinating story of planetary system evolution. Each chapter is meticulously structured to introduce detection methods, offer step-by-step instructions, analyze datasets, and present available instrumentation. This book caters to both beginners and seasoned researchers, providing them with the means to understand the characteristics and evolutionary timelines of different planetary populations. Beyond methodological insights, the book includes online proposal case studies, curated lists of resources, and further detailed step-by-step methods. This makes it an indispensable companion for those venturing into exoplanetary studies or working on planetary demographics.

Uncovering the Evolution of Planetary Systems

Exoplanet Detection Methods

One of our most beloved scientists, a fearless free spirit, Carlo Rovelli is also a masterful storyteller. In this collection of writings, the logbook of an intelligence always on the move, he follows his curiosity and invites us on a voyage through science, literature, philosophy and politics. Written with his usual clarity and wit, these pieces, most of which were first published in Italian newspapers, range widely across time and space: from Newton's alchemy to Einstein's mistakes, from Nabokov's butterflies to Dante's cosmology, from travels in Africa to the consciousness of an octopus, from mind-altering psychedelic substances to the meaning of atheism. Charming, pithy and elegant, this book is the perfect gateway to the universe of one of the most influential physicists of our age.
